Why I woke up humming the theme tune to 1980s Paul Daniels game show Every Second Counts is anyone’s guess. I’m thinking of donating my brain to medical science but not sure they’d want it.

Ugh, is Esther McVey still a thing? Bore off.

It was called Del Marco. Sandwiches and upmarket coffees, with a shiny floor.

One of the best answers ever given on a game show. I forget which.

Vengaboys were good fun but the IBITZA pronunciation was a red line for me #TOTP

I wonder if they're all still friends… #TOTP

I love this Thunderbugs tune, so nah #TOTP

Owing to 27 years of inflation, Sixpence None The Richer now tour as £674,489 None The Richer #TOTP

Who is Emma Ledden? Not a clue. #TOTP

Man, I feel like sharing some original sleeves #TOTP

At this point in 1999, I was working in a Pret-style coffee shop in Bournemouth. You’ve not known stress until you’ve tried to explain the new-fangled concept of cappuccinos, lattes and mochas to a coach load of pensioners who want "Six coffees and three teas, and have you got any biscuits?" #TOTP

I’m calling for tickets but all I can hear is someone downstairs trying to connect to the internet #TOTP

Bailamos = "We dance" in Portuguese

Tonight’s first #TOTP from the "Isis in Nottingham". Hello to the security services who are now reading this post.

Sorry but how can it be 40 years this week since this banger made the top 10? #forgotten80s

If those astronauts were British, they’d have all clapped on #splashdown #ArtemisII

In actual floods of tears watching episode 6. This show has choked me up. The intricacies, the micro gestures – hard to believe it’s not real. And I love how they still mostly call each other by their surnames. Says so much about how tough it is for them to let go. #HeatedRivalry

Bring it back, bring it back to me… 🎵

They would have had to be tried as children anyway and probably would have got off #TOTP

The A-Teens are now in their A-Forties, and sadly the statute of limitations means they can no longer be arrested for this criminal record #TOTP

I’m calling for tickets but all I can hear is someone downstairs trying to connect to the internet #TOTP

I think I just don’t like her stuff at all #TOTP

It really is shite. Even for her solo stuff, all of which was dire. #TOTP

Not to be confused with the Shaft who had a hit with Roobarb And Custard in 1991. And nothing to do with Isaac Hayes or Robert Kilroy-Silk. #TOTP

Mi chico lati-no thanks #TOTP

You're quite right!

Here comes the summer ’99 #TOTP

ACTUAL banks!

Can confirm! #TOTP
